Adding Data ControlsControl TypeCombo boxList boxText boxDate pickerCheck boxToolbarIconPurposeUser can select one item from the drop-down list.User can select one (or maybe more) item from the listshown in the box.User can type a value.User can type a date or can click a button to choose adate.User can select or clear the check box.Search boxUser can type a value or can click a button to searchfor a value in a list.The following sections show examples of each of these data controls, in its default state. Note thatnone of the data controls include a label; this enables you to add labels at any position.You can use any of the data controls in either of the following ways (or even in a combination of bothways):• To filter a data element or another data control in the same dashboard. For example, a user choosesa country, and that updates a pivot table.• To set variables used by data elements in the same dashboard. For example, a user types a number,and a pivot table that shows the top-ranked countries is updated to show that many of the topcountries.Both techniques are described at the end of the chapter.5.2 Adding a Data ControlIn general, to add a data control to a dashboard:1. Open the dashboard in edit mode, as described in “Editing a Dashboard,” earlier in this book.2. Click the button for the type of control you want to add. See “Overview of Controls.”DeepSee displays a dialog box in which you specify the details.3. Configure the control as needed, by setting its properties, as described in the following sections.44 Using the DeepSee Dashboard Designer
Using Combo Boxes4. Click OK. You might need to resize the dialog box in order to see this button.The control is added in the upper left corner of the dashboard.5. Drag and drop the control to the desired location.6. Resize the control as needed.5.3 Using Combo BoxesA combo box is a drop-down list, as follows:The user clicks the arrow on the right and then clicks a list member.To configure a combo box, specify its properties as follows:1. Optionally type a name into Name. This name is not visible in the dashboard itself but is usefulwhen you edit the dashboard.2. Create the list that this combo box uses. To do so, do one of the following:• Create a list of dimension members, as described in the following subsection. If you are usingthe user’s selection as a filter, you must create the list this way.• Manually create a list, as described in the subsection after that.3. Optionally do some or all of the following:• Specify a default list member. To do so, click the browse button (...) next to Default Value.Then type a Caché ObjectScript expression into Caché Scripts. Typically you type a stringor a number. For example:"Federal Shipping"The expression must evaluate to one of the items in the list you created; otherwise it is notshown.Then click OK.• Specify whether the list is populated when the dashboard is accessed. To disable the defaultpopulation, clear the Load records Onload check box.Using the DeepSee Dashboard Designer 45
